[AGENT++] Does SNMP++ library do strict IP checking?

Hi Team,

We are using SNMP++ library in our product.

One of our customer trying to do SNMP queries against devices where they have been asked to use the Mapagement interface / ip for queries. They reported SNMP queries are failing. During testing (internally) they saw that the SNMP query comes in to the management IP of a device and device responses are going out of a public interface on the device.  The network engineers has configured static routes to force communication this way.

They tested same with NetSNMP and it is able to do SNMP queries and getting replies as well (even though other IP of same device sent those).

IS there something in the SNMP++ forcing strict IP checking and can this be modified? Perhaps modification of a .conf file or something?

Thanks,
Saurabh Thuse
